Three days later, the case of Shen Yuan accidentally killing Sun Cainan ca to an end. Shen Yuan would be executed at the ridian Gate.
Countless commoners rushed to spread the news, all wanting to see how this young man with a bright future would end up like this. So people felt sorry for Shen Yuan, and so people scolded Jing Chuchu for being a fem fatale. All of a sudden, the capital beca lively.
Shen Yuan had probably never thought that such a day would befall him. He was proud and arrogant and wanted to climb up the ladder. He wanted everyone to see his achievents, but now, he was being pointed at by the “peasants”. He probably felt extrely humiliated.
More and more people threw vegetables, rotten food, and eggs at Shen Yuan. Needless to say, they were from the Sun family. Shen Yuan knelt on the execution platform with the executioner beside him. At this ti, if his family was here, they would be allowed to co up and feed him the last al. However, no one from the Shen family ca today.
Shen Xin was already on bad terms with the rest of the Shen family. Why would he co? Shen Gui was a coward. Ren Wanyun had gone mad. Old Madam Shen had been suffering from leg pain, but even if her legs were fine, she wouldn’t be bothered to co. The third branch, who were fence-sitters, did not show up today either.
Shen Yuan looked up at the sun that was shining brightly above the capital. It was still winter, but the sun was already as dazzling as it was in sumr. When it reached noon, the executioner spat out a mouthful of wine over the broadsword, raised it, and slashed down!
The crowd burst into exclamations. The won covered their eyes in fear. The head rolled down the stage and into the crowd. It rolled for a mont before blood spilled. On the ground, Shen Yuan’s eyes were wide open, as if he was still a little confused, as if this head that had already been separated from his body would say sothing in the next mont.
After witnessing this scene, soone quietly turned around, disappearing into the crowd.
At this mont, the Shen family was in dead silence.
Shen Yuan’s death dealt a huge blow to the Shen family. The Shen family didn’t have many offspring, and among them, Shen Yuan was considered the most outstanding. Such a talented young man who might take over the Shen family in the future died so aggrievedly under the executioner’s sword. It would be a lie to say the Shen family wasn’t sad.
Shen Wan was sitting in the room when a servant ran in and said, “The execution is over, and the corpse has been sent back.”
The Sun family was kind enough to return Shen Yuan’s corpse to the Shen family in the end. However, everyone knew that the feud between the Shen family and the Sun family wouldn’t stop just like that.
“There’s no need to hold a funeral. Bury him as soon as possible.” Shen Wan sighed, looking deep in thought.
“Master, are you still worried about this?” Chen Ruoqiu walked over and said gently, “There’s nothing we can do to save Yuan. After all, the Sun family is not an ordinary family.”
“I just feel…” Shen Wan shook his head.” Sothing is wrong. Didn’t you notice?” Shen Wan said, “Recently, the Shen family seems to have run into so bad luck.”
“Could there be sothing unclean?” Chen Ruoqiu was shocked.
Shen Wan frowned. “What nonsense are you talking about?”
